Summary
He kisses her.
Okay, so be it.
Furina has kissed and been kissed many times before. But that has been onstage, for an audience, for the grandeur of it. There is nothing sweet, nothing gentle or kind here. Only wear-worn desperation, violence, callous need. Brutal, miserable, all teeth.
“To know you,” Neuvillette begins when he attempts to separate them, as though that is something Furina will allow at this point. Their grave is dug and now they must lie in it. She is only fulfilling promises already made.
Furina says, cold as the wicked freeze of a pond in winter, colder, “Here is the truth, Neuvillette. I need you. I do. There! You have it direct from me, not sweetly implied or hidden to be wheedled out by the smooth hand of analysis and hindsight, but grossly put in front of you, your dinner. You may thank me for it when I am done speaking.”

"Not yet," he admonished gently. "Your release is mine to give."
The whimper that escaped her was entirely undignified, wholly unbefitting an Archon. But here, in this space, such concerns meant nothing.

Her smile turned mischievous. "Tell me what you want, my dragon. For once, put it into words."
His eyes narrowed slightly at the challenge. Speaking of desire did not come naturally to him, but he had learned that giving voice to certain things pleased her tremendously. And pleasing her had become, inexplicably but undeniably, one of his primary motivations.

"Still with me?" he murmured, his voice barely above a whisper, yet it filled the silence of the room completely.
"Mmm," she responded, not trusting herself with words yet. The storm inside her hadn't fully abated, but Neuvillette's touch was like an anchor, keeping her from being swept away by the currents of her own making.

Summary
Furina whimpered, frustration evident. "Why stop?"
"Because you still believe this is something to rush through," Neuvillette explained, sliding back up her body. "That pleasure is a fleeting thing to be experienced quickly and forgotten. I intend to correct that misconception."
